What is Nalmefene for Alcohol Support?
Nalmefene is a prescription medicine used to help patients reduce their alcohol consumption. By targeting receptors in the brain linked to cravings, it helps lower the urge to drink and supports long-term recovery. Nalmefene is often prescribed when Naltrexone is not suitable due to liver function concerns.
How Does Nalmefene Work?
Nalmefene acts on the brain’s opioid receptors, reducing cravings and the rewarding effects of alcohol. It is typically taken before drinking situations, making it a flexible option for patients working to gradually reduce alcohol intake.
